A/N- I am on a roll!!!! Oh and so this makes a little more sense, I am making it so the Alpha site is around 14 hours ahead of Earth time wise. So morning on earth is evening there and vice versa, this is just explaining how Daniel is talking to Jack off base and Sam and Lisa seem to be working. So essentially, Sam would not have been that tired when she went back to the Alpha site as she would have lost a day going from morning to night, but if you could just look past that little indiscretion and concentrate on the cookies I am offering to those who review I would really appreciate it!
&&&&&&&&&&&
Daniel stared at the object in his hands, a little unsure what to make of it. "Well Jack, there are a few things you could do with it, but I am not the person you should be handing it to." Daniel said giving it back to Jack.
"But when? Sam's going to be here for three hours Saturday then that it is, she has to stay back there because she came these last two weekends in a row." Jack replied.
"Then wait. The more time you have to plan things the easier it will be." Daniel told him.
"You're right." Jack said slipping it back into his pocket.
"So, if I can talk shop for a minute, the site that SG 12 found, I think that I should go there, see what it was that had the Furlings so worried." Daniel said to him.
"Next week, you have three off world meetings this week." Jack replied. Since Sam had taken on the alpha site, Daniel and Teal'c had joined SG 2, and Daniel was roving through all the SG teams who had meetings of a diplomatic nature off world. He was essentially the manager of all off world negotiations and neither he nor Jack had a problem with it. Daniel was able to make sure both parties were taken care of and Jack knew there was no one better to handle other world allies.
"Right, one of which I leave for tomorrow." Daniel said. Taking the hint Jack stood up and the two walked to his front door. Slapping him lightly on the shoulder Daniel could not help the grin on his face. "I'm sure you'll think of something to do with that." He said pointing to Jack's pocket.
"I'm sure I will. Night Danny." Jack said.
"Night Jack."
Jack drove back to his and Sam's, now with a mission in mind.

"How's she handling Colonel?" Captain Sheffield's voice crackled over the radio headset.
"Like a dream Captain." Sam said into the small transmitter in her helmet.
"She's not shaking?" Major Andrews asked her.
"Smooth as silk. Major." Sam replied. "But I think I'm going a little easy on her."
"Well Colonel, by all means, take her to the cleaners." Captain Sheffield replied.
Sam could barely contain the adrenalin in her system as she flew the craft in the designated test flight space near the mountain. Testing how it handled, Sam began to take sharp corners, waiting to turn until she reached the very edges of the flight space. Deciding to push the envelope, Sam began a fast decent towards the heavy bush below, waiting until the nose was about to brush a tree, she pulled back quickly sending the craft upwards, then guided it back causing it to loop. When she was upright again, spiraled along the invisible boarders of the flight zone, pushing the boundary once more.
Watching from the interior of the mountain, Captain Sheffield let out a whistle of appreciation as he tracked Sam's movement.
"Now come on Colonel you're just showing off." Sergeant Smith said into the microphone.
"One of the joys of being in charge." Sam's static laced voice said back to them.
"How about you bring her in so someone else can play" Major Andrews said over the radio.
"Roger that, coming in now." Sam replied.
Minutes later, Sam was walking from the storage room where she had landed the craft.
"What is it?" Lisa asked, her eyes wide in wonder.
"This is the X-304." Sam said proudly. "We were given the task of designing a prototype vessel that could be used as an exploratory ship for worlds with limited access to land mass or where ground exploration is deemed hazardous." Sam said grinning like a kid.
"And this is it?" Lisa asked.
"She sure is. Dr Rose meet Jeannie." Major Andrews said.
"Jeannie?" Lisa replied.
"As in I dream of..." Captain Sheffeild said.
"Any reason she is named after that?" Lisa asked.
"Too much time on their hands." Sam replied rolling her eyes.
"We've already started Tabatha." Sergeant Smith said. The Bewitched reference not lost on Lisa.
"And I assume we'll have the Lucille next?" She asked.
"How'd you guess?" Andrews asked with a smirk.
"Get back to work." Sam said heading back to her lab to complete her part of the report of the performance of the Jeannie.
